Rob Fierek has been making pots in the Tamar Valley for over three decades.
He makes a wide range of functional and decorative stoneware and is known to have an eye for a good curve. Expert thrower and modeller, he is also very creative with his decorative techniques and often displays a fine sense of humour.
The centre has a wealth of books and maps and the website provides details of events throughout the year, most notably walks in the local area. It’s worth checking their website or popping in during your stay if you need some inspiration for places to visit or things to do in the locality
(pronounced ‘COAT HEEL’),
We recommend visiting the National Trust website to plan your visit
Cotehele house, river quay, watermill, estate workshops, glorious woodland and gardens are highly recommended. It’s especially worth a visit at Christmastime to see the famous dried flower garland (you need to book your viewing slot in advance of your visit)
With more than 1000 acres to explore around Cotehele alone it’s a rambler, dog walker and nature lover’s paradise. There are some wonderful walks around this area too, the Cotehele circular walk (featured on National trust’s website) or the iwalkcornwall Cotehele to Calstock walk along the river is highly recommended
There is a national trust gift shop and gallery on site worth visiting too, they always have interesting pieces and local artwork
A small 17th century local pub serving lunch and dinner and often has live music and open mic nights. Booking recommended
A stunning place to visit, an important river port since Saxon times, with its tall white houses appearing to cling to the steep Cornish bank of the River Tamar
The village is dominated by the impressive grade 2 listed viaduct, completed in 1908 and the largest in Britain to be constructed of concrete blocks. Today it serves the Tamar Valley branch line from Plymouth to Gunnislake, a trip that’s well worth taking… In the last century Calstock railway served the local area of intense industrial and mining activity in a parish renowned, at the time, for its cultivation of fruit and flowers
Calstock boasted a rich mining history going back to medieval times and Silver, arsenic, copper and tin have all been mined in the locality
The village has a small active boat yard, as the river is navigable, at high tide, from Plymouth which is fourteen miles upriver. The village has some interesting artisan shops and a lovely pub
This site is free to visit and enter
Carved out from a natural hill, this single ditched Iron age hill fort, which Is a scheduled ancient monument, was created between the 5th and 3rd centuries BC. It probably served as a beacon site as well as a protect dwelling. At the summit of the hill fort, look out for dark green fritillary butterflies in the grass and health land. Meadow pipits, snipe and yellow hammer birds are also regular visitors
The woods at Cadsonbury is a great place to visit at any time in any season. In the sunshine the woodland paths along the River Lynher (pronounced LINE-ER) offer cooling shade. There’s an abundance of flora and fauna for walkers to enjoy throughout the year. Look out for otter, salmon, and birds including dippers and kingfishers which can be spotted along the river.
